So true …life time investigation…a few life times may be

Thanks for showing us the wonderful process. Beautiful results in the end. A word of caution, be careful with putting your hands in cobalt glaze ,if it's absorbed into your body it may be toxic. A simple solution is to wear rubber gloves.

[@rz1974]

I'm not a professional BUT cobalt oxide typically does not absorb into the skin, though of course can enter the blood through cuts, but still that amount is unlikely to be harmful unless you were glazing everyday, cobalt can be found in foods and therefor our bodies already, as with a lot of these heavy metals the real danger is constant exposure, typically in industrial settings, and also typically through inhalation, though I would probably still avoid heavy metal sulfates, and sure wear gloves if you want to keep your hands moisturized

Love the technicality and the info,but the piece itself is not for me….remind me of a dog bowl and bedpan combo!

[@lb003g0676]

I think it was questioning how it would function as a vase and then questioned whether it was a vase at all, and if not, what function it would have. As soon as I looked at it as a functional object, bed pan popped into my head. Which is annoying because it's a beautiful shape, piece of craft and colour. Questioned whether I should even say this as I would hate it serve as discouragement of the form. Personally speaking, it's still very beautiful.

[@rz1974]

@@lb003g0676 the low wide form can be found in Japanese or Chinese flower arrangement, where sometimes even a low wide bowl is used, very far in form from a tall upright vase, I think it would read less as bed pan if they pictured it in use
